Title: Any ideas on this chocolate pot mark?
Post by: ssf2 on September 14, 2016, 10:17:12 am

The mark on this chocolate pot is not intact. Does anyone have any ideas? It looks like there may be one or 2 letters before the M that I can just make out. Perhaps MM or HM? I have seen this style of pot before, maybe German? Any ideas would be appreciated.

This is a beautiful chocolate pot.  This shape was/is very popular.  Hard to tell on the mark.  Will look.  They were made all over - Germany, Czechoslovakia, etc.

Thanks KC, I think it is beautiful as well. I love the overall shape and also the feel of it when you pour. Well-balanced.

Am I seeing J&M?

Could be, but it is hard to tell. When I magnify it, it kind of looks like there is a horizontal line even with the bottom of the M. So maybe it is an L M or L&M? Who would J&M be? I saw a J.M. but not enclosed in a circle or wreath.
